Samsung unveil a whole bundle of awesome new phone tech
As things stand right now, in the mobile world, the crown for the most powerful processor around goes to the Snapdragon chip, made by Qualcomm. You know the one. It’s that 1GHz monster used in the Toshiba TG01, and the upcoming HTC Leo/Touch HD...
HTC Leo spotted on video – first ever WinMo phone with multitouch?
Over the last couple of days, you may have noticed that I’ve been going all swoony over the upcoming HTC Leo. You know, the phone that’s set out to firmly steal the crown off the Toshiba TG01, as the most powerful mobile phone (with the b...
HTC Leo spotted in the wild – has biggest screen in the known universe
For a while, now, the Toshiba TG01 has been the most powerful phone in the UK, and is if that wasn’t enough, it’s also had the biggest screen of any phone in the UK. However, it won’t be sitting at the top of the pile for that much ...
Orange and T-Mobile to merge and create UK’s biggest mobile network
Yep, this here be big news, alright, so big that everyone, including our own news section, has already covered it, but hey, that’s never stopped me from doing a blog post before. But anyway, yes, as you may have read elsewhere, the big news tod...
Kiki goes official – say hello to the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness
Ooh, I do like it when I get a chance to talk about a technology that’s genuinely completely new to the world of mobile phones, especially since nowadays, my jaded old mind keeps going “but everything’s got WiFi and GPS now, arrrrgh...
Survey – one in four Brits carry multiple mobile phones
A interesting story’s popped up on the pages The Register, today, about a recent survey run by Opinium Research. According to the survey, one in four people have, and use, multiple mobile phones. This is not a big surprise, since I’ve got...
Even more finger-friendly version of Windows Mobile on the way?
As you probably guessed from my posts on the subject, I’m pretty chuffin’ excited about the upcoming release of Windows Mobile 6.5. I like WinMo, but I can see how it is flawed in places, and WinMo 6.5 (or Windows Phone, as Microsoft want...
Mini Review - SPB Radio is now available
Hands up anyone who’s got an FM radio on their phone. Ok, granted, I can’t actually see who’s got their hands up (and I’m intrigued, in a humorous way, how many people reading this did actually put their hands up), but I bet q...
Archbishop of Westminster denounces over-reliance on mobile phones
Right, I am going to avoid any potential controversy in this post and say up front, right at the start, that I’m an atheist. I don’t believe in there being a god, and I don’t see a need for there to be a god. I’m against relig...
Apple says cell towers will die, world will end, if you jailbreak your iPhone
I will say in advance that I realise this particular blog post I’m about to do carries with it a high chance of me being flamed to a crisp by iPhone fans. But this story made me laugh too much not to run it… The story begins on the pages ...
New Sony Ericsson X2 video - awesome phone, inept user
I am a rampant Sony Ericsson fanboy. Everyone who knows me knows that. I’m like a slightly more moderate Apple fan, but fixated on a different brand, and with the knowledge that my favourite manufacturer can and does make some stupid decisions ...
HTC Firestone leaked online - real design or fan-made render?
I’m a bit of an HTC fan, I have no shame in admitting that (despite my Sony Ericsson love affair). They’ve been cranking out some rather lovely phones, and my opinion of them was enhanced last night, when I got the chance to have a play a...
Yet more Sony Ericsson X2 images appear online
Yet another cluster of photos of the upcoming Sony Ericsson X2 has popped up online, according to The Boy Genius Report, but this time, the new phone’s doing its thang alongside its older sibling; y’know, my phone, the Sony Ericsson X1. O...
HTC working on a Snapdragon-powered superphone
Every now and then, HTC have this habit of releasing a phone that blows everything else away. I can remember my reactions when I first saw the HTC Touch HD, and I seem to remember they were along the lines of “chuffing hell, that’s a big ...
40 years ago TODAY, man first walked on the moon…
I am annoyed. Annoyed and truly scared for the future of humanity. You know why? Today is the 40th anniversary of the first time man walked on the moon. Forty years ago, today, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first two men in history to set...
The utterly pointless (and brilliant) red telephone box mobile phone
Public telephones have been somewhat out of vogue, ever since the mobile phone more or less replaced them. Since approximately 400% (I’m guessing at the actual figure) of the UK’s population now has a mobile phone, it’s pretty damni...
Augmented reality - shoot mini-zombies on your coffee table!
Here we go, last post on a Friday, and in the spirit of these things, it’s time for something that’s stupid. Pointless, even. However, it’s something that’s stupid, pointless, immeasurably awesome, and that actually, when you ...
LG Chocolate LB40 spotted in the flesh - optimised for movies?
The past few days have seen a couple of rumours pop up about the next LG Chocolate, not to mention a product video that’s supposed to be the genuine article. Well, it looks like the info we’ve seen so far is genuine, because according to ...
Toshiba TG01 - Orange nab another handset exclusive!

One’s an Android, the other’s all see-thru - Sony Ericsson Rachael and Kiki
Well, I did say I had exciting news for Sony Ericsson fans today, and here it is: after some speculation, it seems that the first Sony Ericsson Android phone has leaked online, according to Unwired View. Currently going by the name of Rachael, their ...
Toshiba TG01 to be an Orange-exclusive?
The Toshiba TG01 is one of the phones this year that I’m most looking forward to having a fiddle about with. It’s the most powerful phone ever made (with that 1GHz processor that I still can’t quite get my head round the power of) a...
Palm Pre - UK launch details to be disclosed next week?
I’ve been going on about the Palm Pre for absolutely ages, now, since roughly 13 seconds after the unveiled it. And one thing you may remember me saying (more than once), is that I’m getting really rather annoyed at the Americans getting ...
Nvidia Tegra chip to revolutionise phones in 2009
I’ve not mentioned this on the blog before, although with my ear firmly pressed to the ground, I’d seen the demos and rumours, but me being me, I wanted to wait until some more concrete news popped up before talking about it. I’m ta...
Experience the graphical brilliance of Crysis - on a mobile phone???
As you may have gathered from my blog posts over the last few weeks, I’ve recently joined the next-gen gaming revolution, thingy. I finally bought an Xbox 360. I am once again, albeit slowly, catching up with the world of big, grown-up, high-en...
Adobe Flash Player 10 on its way to mobile phones!
With the modern world so obsessed with phones that can go online (myself included, ‘cos I still haven’t got over the novelty of it), one of the things people have been waiting for is proper Flash support on their phone. There are a fair f...
Motorola Morrison - Moto’s first Android phone?
Ah, Motorola. They used to be the giants of the phone world. Y’know, back in the 80s and 90s. Nowadays, though, it’s fair to say they’re really, really not one of the giants of the phone world. They went from the phenomenal success ...
Spintronics - this REALLY could change the technological world FOREVER
We’ve seen phones that are waterproofed using magical plasma-based technologies. We’ve seen phones that can automatically sense the environment round them. We’ve even seen phones that can charge themselves wirelessly out of thin air...

Well, they’ve been building it up for a few days, but now, the Samsung Unpacked event has finally gone down, and now, we all know what their new phone is. Dubbed as being ’smarter than a smartphone’, by their own press release, it&#...
More photos of the Sony Ericsson X2 Xperia appear online!
Yep, I am rapidly falling in love here. Again. With another Sony Ericsson phone. That I won’t be able to get till my contract’s up. Argh, life can be so cruel, sometimes! As you may have guessed, if you’ve read the blog over the las...
New phone leaked? Samsung Omnia 2 I8000
Blimey, Samsung don’t muck about, do they? The Samsung i8910 HD is already on sale, there’s a WinMo/Armani phone due to be announced soon, and there’s the Pixon 12 on the way. Oh, and an Android phone. I’ve heard of manufactur...
